bomb vs bomb

Indian cinema has seen all kinds of bombs. Our directors have used sex bombs to dummy bombs to woo the audience.

So it is evident that without a bomb in some form or the other, a film is not complete (be it even in english).
The most notorious among these and the ones that seek interesting observations as the following are, time bombs used by villians.
They usually feature in the climax of the movie. Though every climax ends with the good coming above the bad, these are instrumental in making a world of difference among the industries(kollywood,hollywood,bollywood or tollywood)

So here is a situation which is common for all the films.. lets see how our heroes tackle it..


SITUATION:

The parents of hero and his love interest are locked in a room with their hands tied to a chair.
The room may be in the
- 5th to 10th floor of the apartment in kollywood(we dont have a buildings with more than 10 floors in chennai).
- 100+ in hollywood
- 25+ in bollywood
- actually 3rd or 4th floor in tollywood. But the audience believe it for some 100+ even if by any slightest possible means the directors fails to exaggerate.

Now the villain calls the hero and informs him about the time bomb and warns that the explosion will take place in 30 minutes.

Now lets see the reactions of our hero and his subsequent bomb diffusal..

The hero is driving a car when his mobile rings...

H: "hello"
V: "dai! on appanu aathaalum ippa enkitta irukaanga"(ur parents are with me)
H: "hello!hello! yaar pesaradhu?"(who is this)
V: "on kooda sutthume andha ponnum ippa enkitta"(ur lover is also with them)
H: "hello! yaarda nee?"(who the hell is this)

the villain then describes about the location and challenges him that he can't save his parents..

KOLLYWOOD:

27 min left
The instantaneous reaction of our hero on ending the call would be, steering the car to say 90 degree..
You should not ask if there is any turning there.. the directors are sure that u will not ask because you are already there with ur love interest(in chennai theatre, corner seat) which means you are dumb!
The camera would switch between the front and side angles... but the side angles are usually from the driver's(hero) right side from some other vehicle..
No director has made a bold attempt to show the zid ridden faces of the hero and heroines, which is only possible from the left..

25 mins left(believe it.. its tamil film.. u can reach adayar from anna nagar in 2 minutes)

Now the hero reaches the building..

He finds a lift in the building, near which there is a staircase..
Actually as we all know, a tamil hero is capable of climbing the stairs(like the petronas ad:There is no saying how far he will go) and jumping from top floors in climax.
our hero makes a staggering stop near the staircase only to hit the lift button and start climbing the stairs...

This is actually a logical error which I thought would be an entertainment element(from director)..

24(previous arguement holds good here also)

Then our hero reaches the 5th floor of the building.. he runs like hell through the aisle and enters a house which is open only to realise that tamil villains are smarter than him, they have placed them in a locked house..

So he finds a locked house in the floor and breaks the door only to make the burglar alarm go off...

As a twist in this story, we show the face of the hero from close up, his eyes show that he is panicked.. So we can conclude this to be an off-beat film..

Actually it is a logical move from the hero to find the house which is not locked from outside and no one to attend the door(because the villain will not lock from outside as it would be easy for our hero to find the house)..

The hero finds the house and gets into it..
On seeing his parents whose mouths are tied, he says,

"amma indha nelamaikku unna aalaakanadhu yaaru?"(who did this)
"sollu maa"..

his mother makes a disgusted gesture to remove the cloth from her mouth..

on removal, she says,"dai onakku eppa thaanda buthi varum?"(son, when will u come out of ur dumbness?)

now he frees his parents form the chairs and sends them out...

Then we have the crucial part, bomb difussal..
His lady love wants him to come out with them, but he gives her a kiss and sends out..
Now he closes the door- a dumb move I would say because he is making the possibility of atlest his escape bleak if not for the entire building..


15 mins left( because there was a matter song when the hero kissed the heroine)..

his instinct says that the bomb would be under the closet in the toilet..

on entering the bathroom, he says,"Cha! dirty ppl"

Only then he understands that there is no closet because this is a bathroom and leaves for the toilet..

he finds the bomb as he had expected...

then he tries diffusing it by pouring water over it.. poor soul thought it to be a lakshmi cracker..

only then he remembers the 45th page of his electronic lab manual(used in 2nd yr engineering)

he opens the bomb and finds a lot of wires..

5 mins left..
he starts reading the circuit.. then he says "bastards! I am a commerce graduate"..

then he thinks of throwing the away from the balcony...

Then this idea strikes him...
since he is a commerce grad, he thinks in his lines..

inflation(explosion here) takes place only when the income(input) is less than the expenditure(output)..
So to prevent it, he has to reduce the expenditure which is beyond his control..
But he can increase income(give input here)...

So the second bomb is getting ready...

Our hero sits on the bomb(with back ground music)
The music ends with the explosion and smoke from hero's mouth..

to be continued in other languages..
